>QM Question
How far would you take a "write-in"?

>Player Question
Is it unreasonable for a QM to say no to a "write-in" if it derails the original intent of the quest's story even if it's popular?

Which quest has the best lolis?

I'm talking the toppest of top shelf loli here.
>>
>>1213052
I almost always take write-ins. I usually spell out a few details about the decision to be made and let the suggesters have at it.

Also I'd say it's fine to say no to a write-in that contradicts established stuff about the quest or the character.
>>
Question from a fairly new QM - last session I ran, a side character dropped a fairly unnerving line about their homeland and some completely new IDs reacted to it humorously. I'd very wrongly assumed that my readership=number of voters, and now I'm aware that there are at least as many lurkers as players in my quest from the responses to my "end session" posts. What would you say the ratio of lurkers to players is on /qst/? Do significant numbers of anons really just read quests as they unfold without participating in the decision-making?
>>
>>1213185
>What would you say the ratio of lurkers to players is on /qst/
Hard to tell. 1:1 maybe?
>>
>>1213185
Of course they do. Honestly I'd probably say there is usually at least as many lurkers as players, often many more. I'd probably guess maybe a 2:1-1:1 ratio. Somewhere in that range.
>>
>>1213185
1) it was a new thread, so they may just be voters who got in late

2) that same thread had a shopping choice, and a lot of people NOPE the fuck out of that, and just skip past.

>>
>>1213052
>QM Question
I'm always fine with accepting write-ins,
especially when the players are being damn clever about it. But I'll always flavour it to the character in question and I'd turn it down if it was vastly out of character. Luckily the latter has yet to happen.

>Player Question
The QM has the power to veto any write-in they want for any reason they want and there's nothing wrong with that. You can't expect them to accommodate everything. But that said, if it is very popular than there are likely some underlying issues here that the QM needs to address.
>>
>>1213052
>QM question
Depends on how reasonable and in-character the write-in is. I'll usually write the write-in ver batim, with some moderate editing.

>Player Question

Well no, of course not.
>>
>>1213185

>What would you say the ratio of lurkers to players is on /qst/?

For my quest, it's probably close to 4:1, because I usually only get 2-3 players but end up with 6-7 votes per archived thread on sup/tg/.

Trawler Quest is running!

>>1205444
>>
I'm expecting Beleaguered Prince Quest to end relatively soon, so I'm considering ideas for my next project. I've got a poll running on Twitter at https://twitter.com/BeleagueredQM/status/835686761141534720 that has more information, but I'd also like to check for interest in /qtg/.

>>Option 1: Legatus Goetia Quest:

Seventy-two demons rule the wastelands of Hell. Thousands of mortals seek to rule the Earth in their name. The contract is your burden… and your opportunity.

Hell is a metaphorical wasteland, devoid of pleasure and pain. In order to experience emotions and sensations, demons must live vicariously through humans. In exchange for this service, demons grant humans the power of magic. The mightiest contractors, those who are given command over a legion of 3,000 demons, are the Legatus Goetia.

The Earth is divided into provinces and ever-shifting Empires. The Legatus Goetia rule their provinces and form alliances and agreements with their peers for safety and stability.

Those who have just recently signed their contracts are sent to the College of Purgatory, a place where young nobles and other fortunate mortals can find allies, make enemies, hone their magical prowess, and impress their demonic patrons.

This year, it is your time to join the College.

>>Option 2: Metal Gear Solid: Heaven's Orphans:

You learned what peace was in a place outside Heaven. It's gone now, taken from you by the war you'd left behind. Welcome back to the battlefield, soldier.

The first language you spoke was Russian. The first place you remember is a winter landscape. You were a child, but you had a talent for killing and your handlers knew how to exploit it. You never thought it was strange; you didn't even know there was a life outside war.

That all changed when Black Wolf found you and brought you back with her. Your memories of the events are fuzzy, but you think you were ordered to kill her and lost. It didn't matter anyway. She took you to Outer Heaven and made you one of her subordinates. You were still a soldier, but it was different there. You didn't have handlers.

You had a family.

Then FOXHOUND attacked. You and many of your comrades escaped the NATO bombing that followed, but you lost your support infrastructure. Fortunately, Black Wolf had a backup plan: a luxury cruise liner. It's not an oil rig, but it's enough to store your guns and get you in range of your next job.

FOXHOUND and NATO aren't your only enemies though.

Someone raised you. Someone trained you. With some of the things that happened… you're starting to suspect they want their asset back.

(1/2)
>>
>>1213588
>>Option 3: Modern Shinobi Quest:

The era of the samurai is over, but those who were once called shinobi still thrive in the shadows. It's time to earn your pay.

You were born into a family of modern shinobi and taught how to lie, steal, hide, deceive, manipulate, gather information and hack. Now that your basic training is complete, you have been sent to live with one of your relatives in Tokyo. Although you still answer to your family, you have been given a great deal of autonomy for the kinds of jobs you can undertake.

Make a name for yourself and strike it rich. No matter what it takes or who has to pay.

>>Option 4: Tutelary God Quest:

By order of Amaterasu-ōmikami, become the tutelary god of Hachimichi. Bring good fortune to the region, restore the kami, subjugate Yomi and open the gates of Takama-ga-hara.

Something is wrong on the island of Hachimichi. Cursed youkai stalk the innocent, the souls of the dead are restless, and baleful miasma suppresses the power of the righteous kami.

Through your bloodline, you have inherited divine power. As such, you have been chosen to investigate the curse that has fallen upon Hachimichi and restore the power of the kami. In order to do so, you will have to take over the island's shrine, choose seven shrine maidens to incarnate the powers of the Seven Lucky Gods, sire the eight million to impose order upon the island's chaos, defeat the demons and evil spirits who would see the island fall into the realm of the dead, and re-establish the connection between Hachimichi and the world of the gods.

>QM Question
If I personally didn't want to include a write-in that would make me uncomfortable or 'ruin' the quest, I simply wouldn't. There's absolutely no point in running a quest if you don't ENJOY running that quest.

Personally I like unorthodox write-ins, but if something -really- went off the rails I'd draw the line somewhere. Not because it'd screw over the MC or ultimately ruin their plan (hell that might be a plus), but certainly something downright stupid or completely out of character I would shoot down unless the players could justify it.

>Player Question

The best kinds of write-ins are simply attachments or minor alterations of options already presented. These show that the player has considered the options, then gone a step further and put thought into how they might improve it or net themselves a little something extra. At times they even bring back points the QM themself might have forgotten, like side quests or particular items of interest.

Certainly it's not unreasonable for a QM to say no if the write-in is derailing the quest, regardless of how 'popular' it is. 20 votes for futa-dickgirl shouldn't mean squat to a QM that doesn't want to run a quest centred around a futa-dickgirl.


>>1213185
There are at least twice as many lurkers than there are posters. I'm one of them in a lot of quests. Certainly more than that if you are included non-active lurkers or players that missed the session.

>>1213596
Modern Shinobi sounds like my personal jam, but that's just because of the open-ended nature of it. The others all seem to have some sort of end-game objective already in mind.
>>
Quests simply shouldn't have Russians.

Every single one turns into a shitty meme filled caricature. Even shitty meme quests suffer as a result, as they lose their cohesion and become the generic Russian show.

Just don't do it.

It's bad, because it's just more misleading advice about how to run a quest going around.

Or maybe it's good because it will discourage new QMs from running, and once the current QMs get bored questing will die forever. I guess it depends on your perspective.

>How far would you take a "write-in"?
No limit, assuming it makes sense and has voter support. I encourage write-ins as much as possible.

>Player Question
Is it unreasonable for a QM to say no to a "write-in" if it derails the original intent of the quest's story even if it's popular?
Depends. A QM should be consistent one way or the other. I prefer to allow things even if they go against the original intent because I believe more that the quest ins a collaborative effort, but sometimes the chaos from design-by-committee is too much to handle and results in things worse off for everyone despite being the most popular option.

Keep notes of important information you expect to be relevant later, or that you will make relevant later, and then check it off once you've relayed it to your players. It might also help to make a note of which thread/post# the relayed information is in, for future reference.

As for character information communication, it's easy to do if you have a stupid foil you can explain things to. Or if your character gloats about something internally, or externally, as situation permits. Without more specific examples though, vague answers are the best you can get.

>>
>>1223651
Lamplighter is about a fairly dark world. Literally dark, because the sun god was ripped from the sky and his corpse torn apart, casting humanity into an age of darkness where earthbound monsters, abominations and witches lurk and prey upon the remains of humanity.

"Earthbound" is important, because the earth is composed of the bodies of like 300+ ancient Cthonic gods that died under the glorious sun, and with the sun absent now, their undying whispers worm their way into people's hearts and grant them power in exchange for servitude.

The quest follows a titular Lamplighter who has made it his mission to bring back the sun by traveling to the first city of man, in the hope of rekindling the the remaining embers of the fallen sungod's corpse.

Last time there was a draw thread it died out. I think maybe one or two Anons actually had their requests fulfilled.

Same with the meta thread that was supposed to be devoted to giving constructive reviews on quests. I think maybe one actual review was written.

Also, the meta thread discussing ideas for quests that might be interesting. There really weren't many posts there, either.

None of those threads were deleted; people just don't want to discuss these things, yet they complain about /qst/ being dead and quests being shit. They don't want to contribute to making this a better place, it seems.

I have yet to try drawing for people due to spending money on an app for pretty much that sole purpose but maybe my "art" is just as boring as my writing.

When do you pull your punches?

in before "never"
>>
>>1225643
I don't see it as "punishing" players.

One example I ran had players vote to wall off the room with the magical dark particles and kill the thing it was summoning.

Technically the problem wasn't solved since the monster would be summoned again, but it's not like there was a reason for it to come back RIGHT NOW. The system was not actually interrupted, so there was nothing actually acting against the players.
>>
>>1225643
When there is enough discussion and worry that it is very clear the players are afraid of the consequences of the available choices being all overwhelmingly bad regardless of what is actually chosen, or an unbreakable tie results from their desire to take specific routes doesn't mesh well.

The usual method I use to deal with it, since the quest this is an issue in has 5 choices and accepts write-ins, is to go over the choices in more in-character detail and then take away one of the choices in question by having the character decide that it is an infeasible or useless option - regardless of the actual nature of said option. In game terms, the character focuses on the options most likely to obtain results or move their needs forward, discarding the option they believe least likely to be of direct or immediate use. After all, if the players really want that option they can write it in after, which tells me that they wanted it all along-which has never happened.

I do have a new one in mind, but I've still got to work on its development before I'm happy with it. I'll talk about that sometime later. It'll be a while before it actually launches (and hopefully FoxFire will have concluded by then).

I've got a general idea for a quest but I'm worried that I'm not good enough to run it and I'm having trouble hammering out some details.
Should I just buckle down and give it a go or just give up now?
>>
>>1232907
Just do it. The worst that can happen is you're a massive disappointment to all parties involved including yourself while not having fun who leads your players on with missed and canceled sessions until you lose all desire and feeling after making arbitrarily bad decisions while being unable to write grammatically correct or consistently structured narrative with meaningful entertaining choices and railroading players into one of three bad ends to the point where you're forever remembered as a terrible total shit-tier QM who deserves nothing and also it was fanfiction.

So buckle down and try it nigga.
Not being good enough to do something is the excuse of the anxious, but it at least means you already care about trying.
It's not like QMing is a sport or profession where that attitude will destroy your life completely, that's what the curse is for.

I have two ideas for a quest.

A political and diplomatic quest set in an independent steampunk stronghold where you have to do a lot of negotiating and resolving inner disputes

or

An Elder Scrolls quest where you play as a lowlife skooma dealer who would, presumably, end up a successful criminal mastermind.
>>
>>1235464
Which sounds better?
>>
>>1235453
Some quests even back on /tg/ managed to get away with hardcore in the thread itself.

Which is how it should be, text is safe for work, you don't get your post deleted for describing somebody being disemboweled by a bronze golem shoving their hand into somebody's ass and pulling their organs out of their rectum, or for sarcastic descriptions of how a particular movie makes your grundle tingle with excitement.

He takes it from you and points at the metal semi-circle which contains the trigger. "This, right here. Squeeze it like this." He points behind him without looking and fires it off several times, hitting a partygoer in the calf. He chucks it back over to you, and you catch it nervously. "W-woah! Alright, hehe, I'll give it a shot." You look over, and nod at Ai. "I hope you don't think less of me for this, dear."

The man who'd just been shot cries out. "My fucking leg! What the fuck!? Something bit me!"

She turns her head away, pouting. You line up the sights, and, squeeze. "O-oh! Woops!" Your hand slips, and you fire it off almost directly upwards.

What if it was an emperor's harem full of intrigue, manipulation, competing for the emperor's ear, plotting with ambitious members of court, framing competing concubines and wives to get them out of the way, assassinations both against and by you, and so on? Maybe there would even be sex sometimes.

Or would it just end up as Waifu Quest without the meta?
>>
>>1240824
If you play the emperor, it's shit.

If you play an ambitious concubine in the God Emperor's thousand woman harem starting at the rank of 1000 and having to work your way to the top through grit, subterfuge, wit, potentially hot blooded shonen action depending on genre, well . . . then you might have yourself a decent quest.

I don't know man, for me yuri only works if it's the sugary-cute lovey-dovey kind. When it's all manipulation, deception, and knife-in-the-back politics then it's just not yuri anymore. I can see homosexual encounters fitting the tone just fine, but I have trouble seeing how yuri would fit in.

It's been like two fucking years by now, either fucking run it or fuck off.

I don't mind. It doesn't fit my definition of what yuri is, but I absolutely did not say that it's a bad thing.

Kind of does take the sting out of the whole treason and backstabbing if the players actually want it to happen, though!

Nah that's alright. I already have a quest, don't need another right now.

Well, the genre was built on angst and relationship drama. Also bad ends, but thankfully we've moved on from that.
>>
>>1241123
I still love bad ends. They're awesome!
>>
What's the lowest the qst audience can be expected to go, morally?

I'm working on something where the player can interact with criminal organizations, which has a market for slave trade (in a setting where slavery is near universally banned and seen as immoral). Would they take advantage of it given practical (if certainly not righteous) incentive or will they try and attack the slavers for the fun of it?

Said slavers would be rather influential locally, since the location in setting is quite lawless and outside interference from international human rights organization meddling.
>>
>>1241218
>will they try and attack the slavers for the fun of it?
Absolutely yes.
>>
>>1241218
Depends very much on how you establish the MC and their personality.
>>
>>1241218
Honestly it's a crap shoot that depends on what people you attract.

I've seen people go full edgelord and full moralfag in quests. Sometimes in the same quest where they argue for half the thread.

Is there a point in running a non-fanfic quest?

>>1241241
That one HP thing back on /tg/ was pretty popular, so it would probably pull a crowd here too. There are a lot of people in the late teens and early twenties here, and every single person in that age group loves HP, with no exception.

NO EXCEPTIONS!

Is there a point to running a quest?

I read a series of One off roguelike quests that I loved on here a while back and it seems as if the original OP is never going to return and do more of these or at least no time soon.
Is it acceptable I took up the reigns and ran my own quest using his material and rules etc?

For reference the quest I'm running:
>>1240983
>>
>>1241310
That's nice but the CIA leaks are way more interesting than your quest.
>>
>>1240148
At least they spared you the trouble of reading the fucking quest
>>
>>1241382
This. The image is a perfect representation of the quest: a bunch of worthless harem waifushit centered around shallow anime recolors and maybe some spaceships I guess.

It's a trashy quest with a trashy OP image, I don't see why that upsets you.

NEW AVALON REVIEW

Disclaimer: I’ve never played a game of Changeling: The Lost before.

New Avalon is a series of one-shots in which Vox constantly asks for feedback about his mechanics. I doubt he actually cares for feedback about anything else, but I’ll share some of my thoughts anyways. I’ll also be concise to the point of being curt, because otherwise, I’d feel like I wasted my time writing it.


KING OF NEW AVALON

This is the first one-shot. The writing starts off awful to parse, but it gets better. The prose also has a wonderful cadence that results from Vox attempting to shove as many adjective clauses and unnecessary commas in the middle of perfectly fine sentences. It gets better, but never disappears altogether.

The story is simple and fits a one-shot format: you’re Arthur, and you’re on a quest to find Excalibur. Except it’s in magic Baltimore. And you’re an ogre.

You are immediately thrust upon a slew of proper nouns. There’s enough context clues to explain half of them. At about halfway through the thread, the other half are laid out in paragraphs OOC. It’s mostly Vox jerking off to the setting.

A lot of the characters are bordering on the edge of passable. Most of them have no impact; anything interesting is gone after a few lines. The main character is fine as he is, although there’s some wasted potential from Vox being too afraid to take control from the players.

I’ll take about mechanics later.

If you don’t know the setting, you probably shouldn’t read this.


SCARRED BY THORNS

Vox has now decided to interject non-necessary information by parentheses (there’s no way this is awful at all), even after all those em-dashes, colons, and semicolons.

Action is more descriptive and drawn out. Someone loudly complained earlier. Guess Vox listened a little.

The story is about a Changeling who just comes back to the mortal realm. You do a thing, and then it’s all over; it blows its load too soon. It’ll leave you hanging, panting, and wanting, and your only option left will be to read something genuinely good, like /qst/ plays Myst. Even the epilogue is incredibly unsatisfying.

The exposition’s fitted into story through ham-fisted dialogue. It’s somewhat entertaining, so it’s passable. Personally, I would prefer a combination of this and the ridiculous immersion from King of New Avalon. Vox does this once with the word “Fetch,” where right after the narration also highlights this bluntly. You know, just in case you didn’t get it, you fucking retard.
>>
Characters are garbage. The sole purpose of most exchanges is moving the plot forward and not for characterizing the speakers in a memorable way. Also, Vox believes in providing the MC’s jump-off point for the players to then characterize. Please realize the bottom of the ocean is not a jumping point. Here, MC is incredibly passive and reactive in terms of story progression. The group of people who finds this interesting probably overlaps with those who eat paper.

This one-shot is extremely short. It’s also extremely insulting to your time.


JULY AT CHRISTMAS

Vox suddenly decides to not write like trash.

July at Christmas is about a pyromaniac wrangling with political affairs, and it’s dialogue intensive, as it should be. MC deals with a myriad of assholes. She’s also an asshole.

There’s too many aggressive assholes. Vox, you don’t have to leave an impression with your fists. Still, interactions between the characters carry the story easily, rather than the setting being in the front. Conversations are interesting for once.

Should you read this? …I guess?


MECHANICS

Alright, Vox. I know this is all you care about.

Die are with best of two using 1d10 + modifiers. Critical overrides are disabled, because that’s a special kind of stupid with 1d10s. Modifiers are explained in a character sheet, and the cost of using bonuses is “Glamour” or nothing if circumstances will allow. Glamour is your currency for saving rolls, and it’s capped so that not every roll can be saved. Jokes on you, Vox is so soft you can use it every failed roll.

The length of a one-shot makes it so that this isn’t a resource you have to manage. The DC on most rolls are so pathetically easy that every time someone fucks up, you can patch it up with Glamour and there’ll be no disaster. This is painful to watch in the third one-shot, where Vox gives handouts every time you’re low on it. Also, fucking up a roll and losing health doesn’t do anything, because the one-shot would end before you actually die.

Rolls. Okay, it’s a best of two because a best of three makes it harder. It also means the rolls are more variable. Having to rely on two anons to ruin everything instead of three means every roll is even more nail-biting than before. But rolling poorly means being punished for luck and not the players’ actions. It goes against what Vox seems to be looking for: having players properly assess a situation. He drops down a character sheet— which lists multiple usable skills—an attribute list to give bonuses in specific situations, and DCs for each prompt when needed.

There was a mention that the collection of Glamour was an issue. Maybe blend it in narrative and use it as a reward rather than a task that the players have to go through. Smart choices result in Glamour down the line. This way, the story doesn’t have to take pit stops often, and players are incentivized to think harder. I mean, Vox is already carelessly doing this without even prompted to. Want to take time to make Glamour collection a part of the story as an interesting way to help characterize people? Small arc to collect it. Don’t want to slow the plot? Put it at the end of threads, or end of days in the narrative.

And for skills in the character sheet, at least mention them in the story loosely before letting the players use it. Ease them in. I’ll always think that these things add too much complexity too fast and are awful, clunky crutches that help tide over the fact that the system couldn’t be streamlined smoothly into the prompts.

Glamour and bonus providing skills have made the dice a joke, and by extension, the prompts that ask for them.


I SHOULD WRAP THIS UP

Enough overzealous potshots. Vox’s style of writing is by no means boring. Between the vivid imagery and varying sentence structures, it’s all fun to read. To boot, the setting is, admittedly, very interesting.

I have attempted to plot a diagram of the level of quality of these one-shots. Despite the difficulties of creating a trendline with a lack of data, I’ve manage to salvage some comprehensive findings that will assuredly determine the quality of the up and coming “Cinderella Sanction.” This name is easy to remember because Vox repeats it constantly to remind you. He’ll run it in Fall, he says? Yes, advertising a quest he won’t run until months later when no one remembers.

But holy mother of fuck, of course I’ll be there. Just look at the projections on the graph, it’s all too telling! Jaw dropping, really. There's no scale for quality, but who needs that when you can easily see that it’ll be around three times better than “July in Christmas”?

Well slap my ass and call me a bitch, that does it; better hold out for Vox’s real Changeling quest.

an engaging setting with a situation that creates intrigue and any amount of urgency. it can be done even with a shitty setting by playing up the urgency.

but over all, if your players are completely helpless its no fun. if they can just solve their problem with a shrug and bullshit, its worse.
